Read what some of our patients have had to say about us:
“I just came out of my appointment. This dentist is amazing. The staff were so happy to help, and they made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I was sent here on an emergency NHS appointment. And I wi...”sh this was my local dentist as I would sign up for their care instantly. Sadly I'm based many miles away. Thank you to all that made my visit lovely.”
“I’ve been meaning to write this review for a while because this practice deserves a 5 star review. Myself and other nurses have worked here as locums when needed. A very clean and well run pract...”ice. You can see all the patients really like going there. Basically, the dentist patient relationship definitely deserves the 5 stars on its on. Thank you for booking us and letting us experience such a lovely environment.”
“A few months back I went here for an emergency dentist appointment. The staff was very friendly and kept the place very clean! I was getting an infected tooth removed and the dentist doing this wa...”s very understanding and also explained everything that was going to happen. She understood my anxiety and helped me deal with it. She also made sure that I would be comfortable during the entire thing! So thank you for everything and I recommend that you book here!”
“Had to have an emergency appointment. I put my hands up to being the world's biggest coward when it comes to dental work. I would just like to say I would go again for the best treatment ever. A bi...”g thank you ladies for putting an old lady at ease.”
“Absolutely fantastic and friendly service. Always been a big baby when going to dental appointments but from the moment I arrived at my emergency appointment today I was made to feel at ease despi...”te having a tooth removed. Gutted they're not taking on NHS patients yet. Thank you.”
“Thank you so much!!!!!! I had to book an emergency appointment due to having some agonising tooth pain. St Mawes got me in the next day. I am a very anxious patient after having a recent tooth extr...”action cause intense pain. However, I didn't feel a thing at St Mawes. I even laughed when it came out because I couldn't believe how much I had worked myself up about it. The team were excellent, friendly, informative and quick. 10/10 on all counts. This experience has completely numbed my anxiety towards dental work. If you have an appointment here, you are in excellent hands.”
“OMG !! What an ease I felt going into that positive and very humours atmosphere. Almost completely distracted from the tooth they were currently ripping from my jaw at the time. Top job by the...” ladies and very grateful for squeezing me in as an emergency appointment. ("On a scale of 1-10 how savage will this be?" "at least 11, and u can't smoke for at least 48 days after") 🤣🤣🤣👍”
“Thank you so much, ladies! Can't believe I've put off seeing the dentist for so long, just for it to be as quick as 15 minutes. Very professional, very welcoming and overall I've had a 10/10 experi...”ence... especially considering dentists aren't everyone's favourite place to be!”
“Had my emergency appointment there yesterday. Couldn't be happier now. I was in so much pain before but after a wisdom tooth removal, I feel amazing again! Have to say I'm very scared of needles an...”d dentists but I was made to feel so comfortable there! Amazing work and amazing staff! Thank you so much”
“Emergency dentist for my son. Efficient, quick and friendly. Shame they aren't NHS. Shame they all aren't. Bring back NHS dentists for all!!!!!”
“Nita was amazing! Had an emergency appointment there today for wisdom tooth removal, I recommend them 100 percent. I have anxiety but the girls were quick, swift and efficient I was in and out in ...”a flash! Thank you so much ❤️xx”
“My daughter broke a front upper tooth clean in half whilst we were on holiday and Nina managed to fit her in the next day and did an amazingly skilled job of re-creating the missing half of her tooth ...”in less than 30 mins, whilst also improving a slight overlap with the other front tooth. She and her nurse Jess were very friendly, professional and reassuring, we can’t thank them enough.”
“I had to travel here 54 miles for a dental emergency. Which in the end resulted in two of my teeth being pulled due to an infection. Nina and Kelly were amazing with me as I was really nervous. Ma...”de the experience as calm as it could be. And pretty views as well.”
“Came in today for an emergency appointment extraction, I have quite a bad dental phobia and have never had such a pleasant dental experience in my life! Fast, and professional, put me at ease the ...”whole way through. Can’t recommend it enough especially if you’re a "scaredy" cat.”
“Via my Denplan insurance, I was able to have some temporary emergency work carried out whilst away on holiday by Nina at very short notice, in fact I rang Denplan at 11.00 a.m. and was booked in at 2....”30 p.m. the same day with my crown re-fixed by 3.00 p.m, amazing service all-round. It's always a worry when you see a Dentist you have never seen, but those worries soon went away when Nina started work, a very caring and gentle Dentist who puts you at ease, I would recommend this practice to anyone and also the services of Denplan. Nina carried out all the paperwork so I didn't need to pay and reclaim for my treatment. I was very lucky to have Denplan and to have been directed to a great dentist.”
“I honestly could not thank these ladies enough at St Mawes Dental. I have major anxiety, both times I have been here I have been looked after extremely well, and made to feel comfortable and a lot...” less anxious.”
“This is a superb dental practice. Natalie carried out a complicated root canal treatment with the utmost of professionalism and care, especially as I am a nervous patient. Nina and her team are mo...”st welcoming and I would highly recommend them”
“Very good service, had a root canal done twice previously on my tooth and it failed both times and advised it had to be removed, a client who is a dentist referred me to St Mawes Dental. The proced...”ure was completely different and I haven't had an issue with it since, I have also had other work done at short notice and found them to be very professional.”
“Visited as an emergency appointment. I was in agony, and also terrified! I was instantly put at ease and out of pain. The treatment was fast, and friendly, and honestly made me feel instantly bett...”er! Thank you ”
“Wow! What a brilliant dentist, Nina and the staff are fantastic, I felt so at ease and the team are very professional, very caring, I had to have a tooth removed, and I can honestly say I never felt a...” thing, just a brilliant team, thank you Nina and all the staff”
“I had an emergency appointment whilst on holiday and I would like to thank the dentist and a nurse for removing the root that another dentist had left behind a few days before not a pleasant experienc...”e but made all the better by the staff at St Mawes Dental practice.”
“Nina is a highly proficient dentist surrounded by a good team offering a skilled and very professional service. I have an unusual underlying condition which many medical professionals have never c...”ome across but Nina knew all about it and has subsequently looked after me in an exemplary fashion through some complex dental surgery. On top of that, my husband has "a mouth full of old amalgam" (his words..!) and Nina's pragmatic approach and sensitivity (and honesty) towards him and his dubious old fillings is very kind and patient - she patches him up when necessary and never ever 'upsells' - a refreshing change in this day and age. We would highly recommend Nina and St Mawes Dental highly, she is a worthy successor to the brilliant Roger Metcalfe.”
“Nina and the team were so nice and professional, she made me so relaxed and calm when extracting my tooth, didn't feel a thing. Thank you. x”
“Staff amazing. Friendly, welcoming and very efficient. Can not thank you all for my smile. Definitely recommended .”
“What an amazing dentist! Had 2 emergency extractions, incredibly fast, efficient and painless! Thank you so much!”
“Had a tooth out today, finally pain free after four days, I'd be lying if I said it didn't hurt, it hurt, lol but well worth, lovely staff, 5 star 👍”
“I was fitted in as an emergency within a day they were very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend it!”
“I broke my front tooth on the first day of the holiday and they fixed it on the next day in no time with very little pain. The staff where very pleasant and helpful.”
“Went there as an emergency as through ill health lost my normal dentist. Great treatment & friendly staff, would recommend to anybody.”
“Absolute legends... somehow they made having a tooth taken out an enjoyable experience”
